Great pleasure to have participated in the Good Employer Charter 2024 opening ceremony last week, and meet some like-minded employers in Hong Kong! Human capital represents a crucial asset for any enterprise. With employees increasingly valuing work-life balance, it is vital for organizations across various industries to embrace effective human resource management practices that attract and retain a talented workforce. In line with the principles advocated by the Good Employer Charter 2020, the Good Employer Charter 2024 (GEC 2024) centers around the theme of "Supportive Family-friendly Good Employer." This initiative encourages employers from diverse sectors, including small and medium enterprises, to adopt and enhance employee-focused family-friendly employment practices. By empathizing with employees and considering their dual work and family responsibilities, organizations can foster a family-friendly work environment. Implementing family-friendly employment practices not only alleviates the pressures faced by employees juggling work and family obligations, but also cultivates a stronger sense of belonging and enhances overall efficiency. Consequently, this boosts the company's competitiveness, leading to a mutually beneficial outcome for all parties involved. #employer #recruitment #HR #staffing #engagement #employerbranding #talentacquisition #employee #hongkong
